Hey everyone,
need some pro help this time. I got new strings for my LTD and my Gibson LP for some recordings I'm doing these days. Tuning is drop A# and so I took some D'addario .062 strings. Now the problem is I can't get it to be correctly tuned. Both of my guitars seem to have this problem, but it's heavier on the Gibson though.
The zero fret on the lowest string is about 15-20 cent sharp then every other fret on this string. I know it's normal that a string goes sharp at the initial attack, but 15 cent is pretty much, and it stays there for a very long time after the attack. So I thought, ok, let's tune this string 15 cent flat. But then every other fret is tuned too flat on this string!! So when playing power chords it never sounds right! =( How do I solve this? Hope you got some ideas.
Thanks!
